Avascular Necrosis of Capitate and Other Uncommon Presentations of Carpal Avascular Necrosis

Hand Clinics, 2022
Outside of Preiser and Kienbock disease, avascular necrosis (AVN) of the remaining carpal bones is a rare cause of wrist pain and disability with a natural history that is incompletely understood. At present, much of the available clinical information exists in the form of isolated case reports or small case series. Although reported surgical treatment

Imaging of avascular necrosis of bone

European Radiology, 1997
The etiology of avascular necrosis (AVN) is multifactorial. Independent of its etiology and localization it shows typical pathologies and radiological images. In the early stages localized subchondral edema is characteristic. In 50 % of all cases accompanying joint effusion may be found.

Posttraumatic Avascular Necrosis of the Talus

Foot and Ankle Clinics, 2008
Avascular necrosis of the talus is one the most challenging problems encountered in posttraumatic reconstruction of the hindfoot. Since the first description of the talus injury in 1608 by Fabricius of Hilden, our knowledge of the talar anatomy, injuries, sequelae, and management has increased significantly.
